feature prevents you from locking
yourself out of the vehicle.

with any door or the liftgate open.
 
(Door unlock (control) system with
collision detection) *
 This system automatically unlocks
the doors in the event the vehicle
is involved in an accident to allow
passengers to get out of the vehicle
immediately and prevent being
trapped inside. While the ignition
is switched ON and in the event the
vehicle receives an impact strong
enough to infl ate the air bags, all the
doors are automatically unlocked
after about 6 seconds have elapsed
from the time of the accident.
 The doors may not unlock depending
on how an impact is applied, the
force of the impact, and other
conditions of the accident.
 If door-related systems or the battery
is malfunctioning, the doors will not
unlock.

automatically when the driver's door is
locked using the key. They all unlock
when the driver's door is unlocked using
the key.
